Book excerpt: Excerpt from Index to the Colonial and State Records of North Carolina, Vol. 4: Covering Volumes I-XXV, Published Under the Supervision of the Trustees of the Public Libraries, by Order of the General Assembly In concluding this volume it: seems proper to remind the reader once more that in the accompanying Index the conscious and deliberate effort has been made to have every proper adjective and every proper name, regardless of its relative importance, indexed every time it occurs; that every fact, every separate item which is distinct enough to have a form and substance of its own, has been indexed under every appropriate heading, and that each heading has been made as full as if no other heading was to be used. Notwithstanding this care, it will still be well for the student to check up the references under one heading by those under others and to examine, not only the material found under headings that may be counted more or less as synonyms, but also to examine references to materials under headings related, but not synonyms, for it would be impossible for an indexer to keep every synonym constantly in mind and use. Them always without variation. It is hoped that by this method the simplest investigator, provided he knows how to find words in a dictionary, may easily get all that this Index has on his chosen subject, whether it be, for in stance, Customs, Duties, Imports, Taxes; or, Quit rents, Rents, Taxes. It may be well to add also that, taking this work seriatim in index ing, relationships between parts have been seen which would not appear on the surface to the casual reader. The pages where such relationships - hidden references, as it were - appear have been given in the Index as well as those on which the original subject appears under its own name. By examining together all the references give-n, the reader may also see the connection. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
